147 147. >

In the middle of the square, purgatory opens.

The people screamed.

A horrible, disgusting world.

The earth is made of flesh, and screams resound in the sky.

Zombies roam, eat their own kind, and the belly of death floats.

Unlike the people, Alan smiles.

He looked at the people.

Everyone's attention was drawn.

I've been waiting for this.

“Behold, people! ”

Allen yells out loud.

“This is the world the Vampires want! ”

What are you talking about?

Timont's gaze turned to hell.

That's a hell of a place not even vampires can live in.

And the world the Vampires want?

“I'll ask you what the hell they want. Do you want this hell? ”

Earl Timont's livelihood has cooled.

‘Oh my God, this is...! ’

It's a trap.

He opened hell on purpose!

To show everyone in the world that the existence of a vampire is fear itself.

What he's trying to do...

“We will stop them. ”

Prove that you can stop purgatory and overwhelm the vampire spirit.

I'm talking to everyone in the world.

The recession is absolute.

“Nathus!”

Rich steps out.

Shoot bullets with a musket.

The purgatory that was happening stopped for a moment at Christmas.

Rich is blocking the warp, but not completely.

It is impossible to interpret the ancient runes encoded by Timon in a short time.

‘Yes, it's impossible. Absolutely not.'

Even Richie can only buy us so much time.

So now's your chance.

Seal it up!

“Phew...!"

Earl Timon raises his hands.

I hit the floor with all my dying strength.

Inflatable purgatory.

It swirls around like it's sucking something in.

A myriad of bony hands protrude from hell and grabbed Alan's body.

Immediately, Alan's body began to break apart into molecular pieces.

There you go!

Earl Timont's expression brightens, but it was also brief.

Allen stands tall and folds his arms. No movement.

Earl Timont felt anxious about that.

‘What on earth made you so mean? ’

A sealing technique.

He doesn't have a series of resistances to it, but he doesn't decode it.

I'm taking it easy.

What on earth...?

“Baron Hans Gerami. ”

One human walks out on the call of the Holy King.

Earl Timont's eyes turn.

A young human and many paladins beside him come to the front of the Warp Gate with a large jewel, the heart of Mist Calf.

What the hell?

A human called Hans injects Mana into the heart of Mist Calf in front of the warp.

‘No way...! ’

“I'll enter the decryption. And...”

Earl Timont's eyes widen.

“I'm closing purgatory. ”

Hans said in a confident tone.

Earl Timont's scream echoes.

* *

Hans is sweating cold.

I couldn't help but notice the scared expression on my face.

There's one piece of advice he gave Alan.

- Make sure you don't open the warp.

Preventing them from opening the warp.

Just by stopping them, we can prove that humanity has defeated the Vampires.

But now I've crossed the line.

They are also performing in front of the people.

- When the warp opens, will you be able to stop it with your powers?

7 It's a question asked by the Pope.

Hans said, "Of course. Who am I? You're a genius! ’It was the truth.

I lost to the Vampires, but I wanted to say I was one step ahead of them.

At that, the seven princes smiled.

The meaning of the smile is this.

‘Oh, shit. ’

What a downfall.

You're out of your mind.

‘Crazy.’

A story I heard from Elise in Ireland.

The Patriarchs tend to push when they are convinced of something without any doubt.

Now Allen looked just like him.

Risk of sealing yourself, the likelihood that the Holy Father's Office will be in danger.

Knowing them, Alan was still enjoying himself.

Are you enjoying yourself? ’

Hans looks at Allen and shakes his head.

No way.

The seven popes who were reluctant to become the Holy Father.

He can't be enjoying this kind of danger.

This is the perfect follow-up to saving Earl Timont's life.

‘The prince entrusted me with this task. ’

Hans stares at purgatory.

A part of Allen's head is cracked open and sucked in.

But I looked at Hans with unshakeable eyes.

‘Yes, do it, do it! Dammit, we've got to do something tough! ’

Hans bites his teeth.

Put on a goggle.

Leather gloves and an experimental apron.

Staring at purgatory, you reach for the Heart Chunk of Mist Calf with your left hand and the Warp Gate with your right hand.

‘I'm not satisfied with my birthright. You have to give up the Earl, or the Earl, or the Duke. That ball... ’

Hans opens his eyes.

I'll pull over! ’

I've entered the warp interpretation.

Pierce the flow of magical power through the goggle.

Encrypted runic characters.

Imagine images.

It seemed to see a door.

A solid encrypted lock.

Hans grabs the key and sticks it in the keyhole one by one.

Incorrect

Next.

It doesn't fit!

Next.

Several times, I slipped a bunch of keys into the keyhole.

Cool sweat flows.

Half of Allen's body is sucked in.

‘About this much...! ’

I entered the keyhole.

"You're hit!"

Unlock the door.

Hans takes control of some of the magical forces flowing through the warp.

‘Next.’

Hans opens the door and looks at the closed door.

gradually translates

It's fast and not rough.

Accurate and accurate

Hans' eyes were bloodshot and his nose burst with fatigue.

‘Humans... Is that right? "

Earl Timont's eyes widen in horror.

I'm releasing the overlapping passwords one by one.

‘... this is the last one. ’

Hans seems to be looking at the giant wall with the last encrypted rune character in front of him.

Hans grips his teeth and extends his hands to bend the air.

It controls both the runes and the flow of magical power.

Mystic Calf's magical power shifts with Mana.

Faster, faster! '

It seemed like only a few seconds had passed.

Hans pauses as he deciphers the code.

Charlotte's eyes widen as she looks at him, and Alan just watches.

Hans lets go of his hands.

The shoulders sag and settle on the floor.

You take a deep breath and look up at the warp with a hollow face.

Seeing that, Timmons bursts into laughter with a dazzled face.

“Ha, ha, ha! Yeah, that's impossible. ”

Earl Timont stares at Hans with trembling eyes.

“Humans can't interpret the ancient runes I made. It's 1500. You mean interpret my own life? Nonsense, you've been defeated! ”

Hans winks at Earl Timont.

“Defeated?”

Hans raises a finger.

“That's what I have to say. ”

Hans flicks his fingers.

“Your defeat, Vampire."

The black hands grip the open gate of the warp.

Timmont's eyes widened.

tuners.

It's closing the Warp Gate.

Hans looks at Earl Timont and says,

“1500 years of knowledge? Yes, you have such vast knowledge. But I... ”

Hans grabs Timont by the collar and stabs him in the forehead.

“I have the knowledge of my ancestors. Do you think your ancestors' dozens of knowledge, one vampire, are stronger? Never underestimate a human, Vampire! ”

Earl Timont's eyes widen.

“... who are you? ”

Hans tightens his neck.

“An alchemist on the defensive, and. ”

Hans looks back at Allen.

The lost body is restored as the warp closes.

“This is Count Hans Gerami serving the Holy King, Earl. ”

“It was a good battle. You have been defeated by the humans. ”

Earl Timon laughs in vain.

Genius.

No, a monster lacks the word "genius."

How can a human be like that?

I surpassed myself, called a genius, in the ancient times.

You were handed over to your ancestors?

Don't be ridiculous, it's less than 1,000 years of knowledge at most.

Knowledge accumulated as a human being, talent and effort accordingly.

I beat myself with it.

How about you?

At best, I even gave my soul to become a vampire for Alchemy.

In the end, I couldn't surpass the one human in front of me.

“Do I have to admit, ”

Earl Timont gripped his teeth.

“I can't admit it. ”

It's 1500 years. How much effort has been put into that reckless period.

But a human...!

“You bastard! ”

Earl Timont opens his mouth.

Open your mouth with all your last dying strength.

As I reached for Hans holding his collar, I caught Timong's head.

“There's still work for you to do. Earl.”

Raise the burning Earl Timont.

Then he plunged his head into a closed purgatory.

“Aaaaahhhh!”

Screaming.

Earl Timon's head is split into molecular units.

I'm not being sucked into a warp.

The side effects of the warp make your head disappear.

Soon my head disappeared.

Allen picks up his head and grabs it.

Along with a large number of people, Alan declared:

“We are followers of Gaia. ”

Behold, the Vampires.

If you are alive, you must listen to this.

“We are vampire hunters. ”

This is the recession.

You have powers beyond your control.

“In the name of the Holy King Allen, I command you. ”

And I declare it here.

“Begin the hunt for the vampire on the continent. ”

I declare war on you.

* *

In a crowd of people, the Marquis of Kirum dressed up as a clown made a dazed face.

As his self-immolation cost him a life, he watched from beginning to end.

“I won!”

“You killed a vampire! ”

“Long live the Holy King-! ”

“Humankind never loses! ”

“Crush the Vampires -! ”

Lord Allen raises the dying Earls of Timont.

Humans cheered, despite the terrible sight of the Vampire Diarrhea on fire.

It looks like it's been stabbed in madness.

Leaning on the Holy Father with fear and fear.

In front of those fanatics, the Holy Father stood on the Bone Dragon's head.

Earl Burning Timont is being used as a front line.

Is that what a priest can do?

It is not something you can do in front of a statue.

This was even meaner and crueler than the Demon King in the fairy tale.

This was determined.

The Vampire has been defeated, and the Humans have gained power.

Among these, there must be those who crave the existence of a vampire.

Being that does not get sick by any disease, does not die of old age, values strong strength and pleasure.

There can't be a more perfect creature.

But the moment he saw purgatory, and the moment the vampire was killed, his mind would change.

The hatred of the vampires and the perception that they would be killed by the Holy Father were deeply embedded in their bones.

Humans who have longed for a vampire and have revered Him will show their backs and sing the praises of the Great Depression.

Fear is fear.

- Marquis Kirum, you stay put, and do me a favor.

Earl Kirum recalls the words that Earl Timont left behind.

- He's getting stronger. If we can't seal him up, we'll have to do something.

The Marquis of Kirum presses his temples together.

One last favor for Timmons.

- Build an army.

Even the Holy Father builds an army.

We need an army against him.

Concerned about failing revenge, Kirum bites his share.

We had to form a more powerful group than the one the Holy Father would build.

- Raise an army of bloodthirsty, greedy people. Worship the night, bring the God of Death, Judah down to the pit, and make an army for us to be gods.

- Northwest, if that's not enough, there's a sealed door.

- The gods have sealed them, unseal them. That's ….

The Marquis of Kirum stares at the Holy Father, who stands atop the Bone Dragon.

- It's the only way we can win.

“Yes, Holy Father. ”

The Marquis of Kirum stares at Allen with furious eyes.

‘I admit defeat this time. ’

But that's not all.

We will progress further and become stronger.

When the time comes...

“We shall prevail. ”

The Marquis of Kirum slips out of the crowd.

* *

The Vampire incident left the imperial palace in a state of emergency, but unfortunately, the Holy King's succession continued.

I return to the Imperial Palace and kneel before the Holy Father.

The Holy Father raised the crown over my head. and declared himself the Holy Father.

Many nobles shouted in the war, and I had no choice but to make a blank face.

Oh, my God, what have I done?

So came the night.

“Excellent, Your Highness. ”

Charlotte told me that I jumped into bed.

My body sags with fatigue.

I want to scream because I feel like it.

I stopped the Vampire from trying, but thanks to you, I became king.

Temporarily, I was also given the authority of the Holy Father Celt.

- Humans are ambitious animals.

I remembered what a psychologist said.

Yeah, that was important.

The atmosphere.

You rise too high to deal with the Vampires.

You summoned too many Bone Dragons and left hundreds of undead behind.

The sound of Elise's choir, the cheers of the people.

Thanks to you, I was too distracted to get excited.

“I'm crazy, why would I make such a fuss? ”

I thought of Earl Timont.

You don't snap a finger to show dignity.

The reason is simple.

It is because it is difficult for people to have an explosive reaction if they do not come out that far.

The streets cheer until late at night.

As tired as I wanted to sleep, I had to cover my ears with a pillow.

“Isn't that too much? It was a big gamble, Your Highness. Even though I'm a genius..."

Hans also frowned on the couch, covering his eyes with the back of his hand.

“Gambling?”

I disagreed with that.

“What are you talking about? ”

Hans gets up on the couch. He looked at me and said, as if protesting.

“Is that what you call it? Warp Gate. Warp Gate! If that Seal fails, what are you going to do...! ”

“You can't fail, can you? ”

Hans opens his eyes wide.

“I believed that you could stop it. That's why I gave it to you. ”

“Oh, you still believe too much. ”

“Is it a big deal to trust a servant? ”

Hans shuts up.

I looked at Hans and reached toward the bed.

“Damn bloodsuckers, we got a lot of work to do tomorrow. ”

“Isn't this a good thing? I'm the Holy King.Now I can be the Holy Father. ”

Charlotte said as if she was pleased.

What do you mean, good?

It's a good thing the Imperial Court doesn't have any ankles tied.

“... I'll be busy tomorrow. ”

Hans and Charlotte looked at me.

I looked at them and said,

“Grandfather asked, what will you do in the first place as the Holy Father? ”

Charlotte cautiously asked.

“So what did you say you would do? ”

“Me? That's it... ”

I lay in bed and looked up at the ceiling and said,

“10,000 bilateral descriptions. ”

"...?"

“Maybe I should train 10,000 troops, not 5,000. ”

Charlotte and Hans' eyes widen.

I lay beside Charlotte and Hans in bed.

“Positive deadline is one year. ”

Enough to raise an army to eradicate the Vampires.

So...

“You have to help me. ”

I said with a real smile.
